Ubisoft Testing Option for Steam Users to Skip Ubisoft Connect App
A recent update shared on Reddit indicates that Ubisoft is testing a new tool allowing some Steam users to play its games without needing the Ubisoft Connect PC launcher. This change aims to improve compatibility and user experience by enabling features like cross-play while eliminating the need to install or launch the Ubisoft Connect app separately. The feature will first be introduced in 'Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown' before potentially rolling out to more Ubisoft titles on Steam. This move is seen as a response to long-standing criticism from players regarding the mandatory use of the Ubisoft launcher, which has been associated with performance issues and privacy concerns.
